Arthur Darvill's Globe performance coming to a cinema near you!

My fellow geeks, there is wonderful news for all of those like me who lamented not being able to travel to the UK to see Arthur Darvill as Mephistopheles in the Globe's production of Dr Faustus last year.

Much as the National Theatre has its NT Live cinema productions, The Globe has announced a season of filmed stage productions to be shown in ( Read more... )

Ponders her chances at being able to drag T to the cinema twice on a couple of Wednesday evenings.....

I think that's a worthy challenge!

Good luck!

now it's my turn to whinge and whine - it's not showing anyplace in Canada (more importantly close to us in southeast Ontario). Whiiiinnnneee!

Aw, mate! Not in Canada? Really?

I've got another Canuck friend who is a theatre fanatic and she's quite a fan of the guy playing Benedick in Much Ado (we actually saw him onstage in The King's Speech when we were both last in London). I was going to give her a "heads up" via email since she doesn't have an LJ - but maybe it would be cruel to get her hopes up...

It's ALIVE! Hello. And that is good news. :)

Yeah. Alive. Sorta. I can't believe is October already!

Don't think I'll be able to make the trip down to Melbourne for Armageddon this year. There's stuff (family-related and otherwise) happening in Sydney for the next month or so.

May is coming along to see the Arthur Darvill Faustus with me and my sisters. I'm trying to convince her to come and see Much Ado too, but she hasn't got back to me yet.

My sisters are also dragging me (oh so unwillingly [snerk]) to one of the Comedy Festival Galas at the Opera House.

Then off to the USA in November. I'm gonna see the Grand Canyon! Planning to buy a new camera in honour of the occasion... ;-P

Is this the one I said yes to??? I actually thought it was another play because I know that he's doing/done something else.

Also I thought it was in October - the last Sunday. Actually November is better for me :)

Yes and no.

You actually said that you are coming to 2 plays. Next week is Much Ado. I will probably be hanging out at my sister's place in Petersham. Call me when you get back to Sydney.

Arthur Darvill's is in November.
